Hi Carsten,

Thanks

If you can run a node.js installation and integrate your Creston with it you could use this api to play a song: https://www.npmjs.com/package/sonos

With lextend, you can setup a sonos doorbell in 10 Minutes. Just connect lextend to the LAN and your existing doorbell button to an input of Lextend D-I6.

I too would like to see an integrated SONOS Doorbell. I looked at the Lextend product suggested by segger, but it is prohibitively expensive (over $500) I believe that if SONOS offered an integrated doorbell, it would be well received by customers, and it would put the SONOS ecosystem up one big notch.

With my smartthings I could have a motion sensor or button at front door tell Sonos to say via text to speak “someone is at the door” or “ding-ding”
